In fact I was typing a similar post at the same time, but I was too slow.
Well, yeah Journalist has a "not quite right" idea of what AoA means, I noted that and moved on, I guess if we want to attach a lot of significance to that, we can. I'm not sure what, exactly though. My take on the question to which I was responding was that the poster was asking "what do you think of the announcement that the investigators will investigate the sudden unplanned descent and the AoA data? " Not: "what do you think about the Journalist's ability to accurately describe Angle of Attack"
